Prep Time:20 minutes

Effort:Easy

Ingredients:

1 cup turnips -- diced, measure uncooked

16 ounces frozen cauliflower -- thawed before cooking

1 clove garlic -- peeled and halved

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

2 tablespoons soft butter

2 tablespoons heavy cream

How to Prepare:

Bring 4 cups water to a boil. Add diced turnips and garlic. Boil for 5 minutes, then add thawed cauliflower and boil for 10 minutes or until all veggies are fork tender. Drain well and use a spoon to smoosh out as much water through the colander as possible. Put into a bowl and add cream, butter, salt and pepper. Using a stick mixer(like the Thunder Stick or Braun kind), puree until smooth and well blended. Serve immediately. You can do this in a blender or food processor, but I like the stick mixer for control.
